liatcntod Jun 0 3, 1913.

Application filed March 11, 1912. Serial No. 683,074.

To all whom t may concern Be it known that I, JAMES 1*]. \V'II'I'LALRE,a citizen of the United Stat", residing at ltoelclord, in the county 01\Vinnebago and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful:lmprovements in Carburetors, oi which the following is a specification.

The object at this invention is to construct a carbureter forcarbureting apparatus, and comprises a, :l abric having one endconnected to the movable dome and its other end connected to a pan inorder that any gasoleue accumulating in the pan will be taken up by thefabric and vaporized by the incoming air.

In the accompanying drawings, 1* igure 1 :is a section on line b b Fig..2. Fig. 2 is a section on line a a Fig. 1.

The carbureter comprises the outer receptacle 1 within which is securedan inner wall 2 forming a water space 3 between them. To the inner wallis secured a support 1- on which is located a porlzorated plate 5. Tothe inner Wall 2 near its upper end is secured a pan (3 by the lugs 7.This pan has a central opening 8 termed by the rim 9.

To the top 10 of the dome is secured one end of a fabric tube 11 by thering plate 12. The lower end of the fabric tube is connected to the rim9 by the collar 1?).

An air inlet pipe 14: extends through the opening 8 in the pan 6 andcarries a dellectorhood 19, located above the top of the opening 8, anda gasolene supply pipe 1:.) is located alongside oi the a1r inlet pipe.The opening 01 the oil inlet pipe is a little above the deflector hood19, and has a cap 20 covering said opening and held yieldingly inposition by the coiled spring 21.

A carbureted air supply pipe 16 has one end con'nnunicating with thespace 17 be tween the bottom of the outer casing and the perforatedplate 5 and extends to the point oi use. Air is forced through the airinlet tube by any suitable means, and gasolene is forced through thesupply pipe 15.

Suitable filtering material 18 is located on the shelf.

in use ii? any excess oil. gasolene be injected into the space withinthe tube, it Will Fall into the pan, and as the dome lowers the tubewill iold within the pan and gather up the gasolene which is mixed withthe incoming air and thoroughly vaporized. The cm-bureied air thenpasses through the iill'ering material into the space 17 and passes bythe pipe 16 to the point oi? use.

1' claim as my invention.

1. :iv imrlnu'eler comprising an outer casing, an inner wall, a domemovable between the casing and wall, a pan supported within the innerwall, an air supply-pipe and gasolene supply iipe extending through saidpan, a fabric partition having one end semu'ed'to the dome and the otherend located in the pan and forming an inclosure for said supply-pipes,and a carbureted air delivery pipe connnunicating with the chamberformed by the inner wall.

2. A carburetor comprising an outer and inner casing, :lormiug acircumferential chamber, adapted to contain a liquid, a dome movable insaid clu'unber, a pan supported within the inner casing, air andgasolene sumaly-pii'ies extending through said pan, a fabric partitionhaving one end secured to the dome and the other end located in the pan,forming an :inclosurc for the supplypipes and adapted to conform to theelevating and lowering oi? said movah'le dome, and a carbureled airdelivery pipe com-- numicaiiug wiih lhe inner casing.

2). A. carburetorcomprising a casing forming a liltering receptacle, aliquid contain ing chamber surrolu'iding said reeeplacle, a dome movablein said chamber, an inclosure Formed oi? 'lahric sides having a supportiixed to said receptacle and having its upper end attached to said dome,the inclosure adapted to coniliorni lo the movement of said dome, airand gasolene iui'alm-pipes adapted to discharge within said inclosure,and a. carlmreted-air discharge pipe communicating with said filteringreceptacle.

41-. A, carburetor comprising a filtering receptacle, a gas accumulatingchamber heneath. said receptacle, a liquid containing chambersurrounding said receptacle, a bureted-air discharge pipe communicatingdome movable 1n said chamber, a pan supwlth the carbureted airaccumulating chamported by said filtering receptacle, a tube ber.

formed of fabric having one end secured to JAMES E. WHITACRE. 5 the domeand its other end located in said lVitii'esses:

pan, aiiand gasolene intake pipes adapted A. O. BEHEL,

to discharge Within said tube, and a car E. D. E. N. BEHEL.
